Here’s a collection of 20 delicious Apple Recipes that we absolutely must all make sometime this fall! Just kidding! I’m hoping I’ll have time to make at least a few of them, though. But they all look deliciously spectacular and it’ll be hard to choose which ones to make. Which ones look good to you? […]

Yesterday I shared Peach Cobbler Crisp, which happens to be one of my fall favorite recipes. This Apple Cobbler Crisp is another favorite. It’s made the same way but with an apple filling that is cinnamony delicious ~ warm or cold. I know there are certain apples that are better for baking desserts such as […]

Is there anything better than a warm peach cobbler served up with vanilla ice cream? I live for fall peaches. This Peach Cobbler Crisp is an old favorite. And it’s so easy to make. I love that the crust just kind of creates itself after melting the butter in the pan and adding on everything […]

Until just recently, when I made this strawberry gelato, I had only tasted gelato one time ~ while vacationing on the island of St. Maarten. My son introduced me to it and I loved it. In fact, I went back for seconds! A few weeks ago I was searching on the internet for a frozen […]

I first tried frozen chocolate-dipped bananas at Disneyland when I was about 14! I had never heard of them before but I thought they were delicious. I still remember how refreshing it was to eat a frozen banana on that hot summer day. Then I didn’t have another one for about 20 years because it […]

This is a simple summer fruit salad that’s light and refreshing and can be made with any fruit you like or have on hand. We like it with all fresh fruit but sometimes throw in canned mandarin oranges like in the above photo. It’s delicious with pineapple, strawberries, grapes, bananas, kiwi, peaches, blueberries, all berries, […]

These cherry pie bars are the bomb. Period. That is, unless you don’t like cherry pie. But it happens to be my very favorite fruit pie and I’ll almost always choose it over any other. I’ve seen Cherry Pie Bar recipes all over pinterest but every recipe uses store-purchased canned pie filling, which I don’t […]

If any of you were listening to the radio during the week before Mother’s Day you probably heard all of the advertisements for chocolate dipped strawberries that could be ordered and delivered to Mom. That got me thinking that I hadn’t made chocolate dipped strawberries for at least 25 years! I wonder why? They are […]

I found this recipe a few weeks ago and have been wanting to make them ever since. But the Christmas season was in full swing and I was baking up sweet treats and eating way too many of them {aagh} even though I had gone a full two months of without eating any added […]

These banana nut muffins happen to be my husband’s all-time favorite muffin because they’re super moist and so flavorful. The original recipe is called Banana Macadamia Muffins but I never have macadamias so I just substitute in what I have, usually pecans, but sometimes walnuts. Updated 2-18-14: Recently when I made these muffins I put […]
